Heavy Weather Powerboating Book

21.03.2011

Heavy Weather Powerboating is the powerboating equivalent to Heavy Weather Sailing – the classic bestselling reference book from nautical publishers Adlard Coles.

This new book includes chapters on the theory of dealing with rough seas. It shares the hard-won experience of experts in their field, leaders in their class, or simply ordinary powerboaters who found themselves unexpectedly faced with extreme weather and survived to pass on the lessons they learned.

Among other topics, Heavy Weather Powerboating looks at offshore adventuring, high-speed helming techniques, operating in the surf and surviving terrifying phenomena such as black holes and rogue waves.

Edited by Hugo Montgomery-Swan of RIB Magazine and endorsed by Bear Grylls, contributors include leading powerboating names, from world champions and endurance record breakers to designers, instructors and RNLI coxwains.

Packed with dramatic colour photos, Heavy Weather Powerboating is an authoritative resource for strategies, techniques and experiences in heavy weather.
